How to send a track out of the DAW and through an amp?

Methlab · 15th February 2007

I have the Joe Meek 3q. I was wondering how I could send out a vocal take out of the DAW and into my pedal board and then into my guitar amp. I would track it back in through my Audix I5.

I don't think I would need a DI for this task would i?

I am using Cubase SX3.

Your impeadances from your DAW to the pedal board would be mismatched. The way you describe, you would be sending a line level signal to an instrument level input on your pedal board. Remember your pedal board is looking for "guitar/intrsument" level signals.

So you'd need to use a Re-amp device. Or a passive DI reversed. Here's the signal chain that should work for you:

DAW > DI out - DI In > Pedalboard > Amp > Mic > Joe Meek > DAW

I think a reamp search will give you all the info you need. Hope this helps.

Ok..so I will still need a reamp box.

Thanks, that helps.
